alprenolol and Neuroblastoma

alprenolol has been researched along with Neuroblastoma in 3 studies

Alprenolol: One of the ADRENERGIC BETA-ANTAGONISTS used as an antihypertensive, anti-anginal, and anti-arrhythmic agent.
alprenolol : A secondary alcohol that is propan-2-ol substituted by a 2-allylphenoxy group at position 1 and an isopropylamino group at position 3. It is a beta-adrenergic antagonist used as a antihypertensive, anti-arrhythmia and a sympatholytic agent.

Neuroblastoma: A common neoplasm of early childhood arising from neural crest cells in the sympathetic nervous system, and characterized by diverse clinical behavior, ranging from spontaneous remission to rapid metastatic progression and death. This tumor is the most common intraabdominal malignancy of childhood, but it may also arise from thorax, neck, or rarely occur in the central nervous system. Histologic features include uniform round cells with hyperchromatic nuclei arranged in nests and separated by fibrovascular septa. Neuroblastomas may be associated with the opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome. (From DeVita et al., Cancer: Principles and Practice of Oncology, 5th ed, pp2099-2101; Curr Opin Oncol 1998 Jan;10(1):43-51)

"The action of the (-)- and (+)-enantiomers of the beta-adrenoceptor blocking drug propranolol on the inward calcium current (ICa) was studied in single mouse neuroblastoma x rat glioma hybrid cells of clone 108CC5 by suction pipette technique for intracellular perfusion and voltage clamp."7.67[Calcium current effects in the presence and absence of propranolol on cloned neuroblastoma and glioma hybrid cells].

" Using [3H]DHA and unlabeled L-alprenolol, a substantial amount of over 64% specific binding of beta-adrenergic receptor has been identified on the neuroblastoma x glioma hybrid NG108-15 cell, which has been proven to display numerous functional characteristics of intact neurons."3.68Identification and characterization of the beta-adrenergic receptor on neuroblastoma x glioma hybrid NG108-15 cells.
